have seen you post before but havent checked out your thread till today. what does yppt stand for? also,where is your first post so i can see how your method works. 

Yards Per Point

Just do a search for YPPT in the top menu and you can see the threads from last year. The YPPT method is based on a formula that combines yards per point, home field advantage, and strength of schedule to give a predicted score of the games. I didn't come up with the method, but I have a spreadsheet that calculates the scores. Since the people who did come up with it don't post here any more (or very little), I decided to put up the scores and results each week for those who were interested in it.

As Butta has pointed out over in the college thread for this, YPPT is one of many tools you want to use for handicapping a game. And as the results have shown, it's far from perfect and seems better suited for picking SU winners than ATS winners.

How do you incorporate SOS in the system?

I like to go by passing yards by attempt also.

 Looks like 4 w's and 9 l's...that's not good.
